nce. every cereal box counts. consider tonight we take you inside ces. you'll see the hottest devices from the tech world. some of them you can't even buy yet. we've got the newest trends in mobile, gaming, cars and robotics. tonight a first look at the newest wave of gadgets from the consumer electronics show in las vegas. here's nbc bay area's business and tech reporter, scott budman. >> reporter: hello and welcome to las vegas and the 2014 consumer electronics show. there is a ton of new technology on its way to you, and we are going to show you a whole bunch of it for the next 30 minutes, starting with how this finds its way into your living room.

every year at this time sin city becomes silicon city as the tech world temporarily relocates to las vegas. the consumer electronics show introducing products from all over the world to people all over the world. typically at least two to three years before we can actually buy them. some, like this drone, look cool now and are clearly meant for a future where flying deliveries are the norm. others, like countless new ways to use our tvs and virtual reality are what consumers want right now and will likely be in our living rooms and kitchens by the next holiday shopping season. new tech and lots of techies, briefly leaving silicon valley behind for a glitzier stage. now one of the hot spots here at ces this year has been 3-d printing which in the past was

largely plastic. now it's a whole lot more and some of it is even edible. now so big that it gets its own section here at ces. 3-d printing business really wants you to know that it's about more than just plastic things. >> kind of melts in your mouth. >> reporter: so 3-d systems ceo showed us a futuristic kitchen complete with food made on a 3-d printer, and it tastes good. >> this is a kitchen ready 3-d printer that prints in flavors, in colors, in sugars and in chocolate. >> reporter: threatt printing is going mainstream with lots of materials and just about any pattern or product that you can imagine, even 3-d printed human models are on the way. prices of printers are also falling so you don't have to be a high roller to get one. >> whether you're an engineer,

lockheed martin or a schoolteacher, you can use this to really jump start the innovation process. >> present it to the consumer in a way that affordable, simple, real and fits into your lifestyle. >> reporter: it's technology that's growing and making big profits. call it a delicious combination. now the maker bott consumer line of printer will start at $1,400. the 3-d systems printer that can actually print food is due out in the summer. that will cost you about $5,000. speaking of 3-d printing, here's a way to get just about anything you want printed. also from 3-d systems this scanner is pointed at on object and then it's entered into a computer and then it can be printed. 3-d systems also rolled out a

version of sense that lets you aim your ipad at an object. another area here at ces that has been growing which leaps and bounds virtual reality. it's still hot among video gamers. that's getting a lot better, and now can even burn a sweat while doing it. check it out. if you like the idea of suiting up and stepping into a virtual world, armed with a gun, you'll love the omni virtual treadmill which is called its new gaming system. >> up until recently gaming technology wasn't ready for virtual reality. tracking was complex. that's all changing now. >> reporter: now you can step, list rally, with these special grooved shoes, into the omni's battlefield, and this is what you see while you're strapped into the system. >> you can actually physically

walk around in that world and put your mind and body into the game and it's a great experience. >> reporter: the system is being seld via kick starter for $499. its kick starter campaign was one of the most successful in history at gamers clamor for the next big thing. a thing, by the way, that will likely take users into worlds beyond shoot 'em ups. >> as you can think of training and simulation, military and safety training, you can think of exercise and fitness. the omni is a great way to burn calories and exercise in a fun and engaging way. >> reporter: into thing towards a vurtual future, and it starts by playing a game. for now the system is being sold on the company's kickstarter site for about $500. look for it in retail stores soon. >> reporter: speaking of health care tech, check out the technogym. this one got a lot of attention

partly because it features google glass. it's a treadmill controlled by your glass. you can keep track of your fitness progress because the technogym will store all of your data in the cloud. you probably already know about the sleep number bed. well, it got an update this year at ces. this one costs $8,000. it will track and store your sleep patterns and will even let you talk to it. in addition to responding to your voice command, this will also track your heart rate, breathing rate and the amount of time you're lying still. like one of those bracelets, but it's a bed. wearable technology has been hot in the tech world for some time, and we saw a whole lot of new wearable technology here at ces, not for us adults but for babies, too. the market for wearable technology just got younger, a lot younger.

this is mimo, a wunsie with an intel chip inside to monitor your child. >> talk to a lot of parents who wake up in the middle of the night wondering if their baby is okay and know everything is okay but can't tell. >> reporter: soon they will be able to tell because mimo will tell them via their smart phone. a low power they say safe blue tooth connection to the mobile parent. >> a parent can see their baby is breathing, skin temperature and body position, if they are awake and asleep and also the audio on their smartphone or tablet. >> reporter: and if you're more relaxed about your kid, why not relax even more about letting a robot wash your windows. this eco-vac machine suctions to your windows will wash above you. >> my name is sammy bott. >> reporter: while this one cleans up underneath. >> just makes life easier for people and you can, you know, get on with your life and do things that you enjoy because we're all so busy these days and the last thing we want to do is

spend our weekends cleaning. >> reporter: making things more clear and putting us at ease, isn't that what technology should be about? everything you just saw is for sale, not cheap though. the robot starts at about $300. as for the wunsies, you can get a pack of three, chip included, for $200. as always a big chunk of ces was taken up by big screens. tv sets, and they are not just for watching anymore. soon your set will interact with you and your smart devices. moving the remote off the couch and into your pocket wherever you are. >> we can control the tvs. we can even now from away from our home will be able to send messages from our smartphone, and it will make it all the way to the cloud back to the tv, so if you want to leave a message for a family member. don't forget to pick up your sister after school. don't forget to pick up milk on

the way home >> reporter: buzzwords among tv sets big, curved and 4k, cramming more picks els than ever into a set to make a picture sharper, and unlike some of the 3-d experiments of the past, these tvs are ready to go. the good news from this year's tv crop your next tv will look better without getting too complex. >> more taller than any and goes from inky black all the way up to the dazzling white that you see from a flashbulb. >> reporter: flasher video games along with brighter movies and tv shows, a pretty good picture of what's to come. stay with us. after the break we continue inside ces by going one-on-one with the founder of ness labs on

we always love to see a good drone at ces, and this year parrot was once again up to the challenge. its quad copter drone captured all sorts of attention by flying around and making us all think about future amazon deliveries. and we've never seen anything like this, the jumping sumo also from parrot. it's a remote-controlled bott that jumps pretty much anywhere propelling itself up with a piston. now, those of us who live and work in silicon valley knows the tech industry creates a lot of wealth, a lot of jobs and you a lot of opportunity, but all over the world it turns out the tech world also creates a whole lot of coffee. it's still huge. in fact, the consumer electronics show takes up 35

football fields with just about every square foot taken up by gadgets, and there are 1.9 million square feet worth of space here, the most ever for ces. 3,200 companies have come to las vegas from all over the world to show off their product with somewhere close to 140,000 here to test those products out. by the way, that's three people for every single slot machine that you'll find in vegas. if you're wondering how we all stay energized, ces will serve up close to 17,000 cups of coffee this week. if you were to drink one cup of coffee a day, you'd need 47 years to reach that number. now let's say you wanted to see every product here without ces. with companies representing every part of the planet, it would take you 700 million miles of travel to test everything.

why all the attention on this one show. consumer electronics is already hot, and it continues to play a huge role in our lives. each household in america has on average 24 consumer tech products inside. >> in a sea of products that are coming soon to your house, one bay area company at ces is already selling a test of them. that is ness and matt rogers is the co-founder of the newest product. >> not coming soon. >> how is it here on the floor and saying we've been selling a ton of these? >> love talking to people about the products and buying them at retail as opposed to, you know, coming soon this year. go to home depot and buy it today. >> when you and you're previously with the ipod, obviously with apple. well known for consumer products. when you see what's out here, what catches your eye? >> i love this stuff. the new car entoetainment

systems are really cool. i'm looking forward to seeing what comes out with those guys. >> i know design is very important to you, and has been since the apple days and now, of course, with ness. do you see a change in design over the last few years at this show? >> definitely. i think since the iphone a lot of other companies are trying to pay attention to design. before companies saw design as an expense, and now they are seeing it as a must have. >> okay. with products like the protection before, you know, your thermostat. it sort of changed the way we look at these products that we're such utilities and now they are kind of conversation pieces. do you see more of those, not just from ness but other companies. >> i think people woke in the industry that stagnant products can change and people will buy them and people will interested and ness will come out with lots of great stuff and other people will look at industries. >> and in cars, we're starting to see a lot of electronics there. >> you have the dashboard and

infotainment system in the middle. no consistency between your car, your car and your home. >> i'll put you on the spot while you have a second. can you tell us what's coming from ness in the future. >> more great stuff like this. >> we announced this product site two months ago and whenever we do new products we always want to do things. with the thermostat we did 21 software updates and we'll find other great tie-ins with other great industries to add to that experience. >> matt rogers, co-founder of ness, thanks for taking time out of the show. great to see you. >> coming up, a peek into mobile and a moveable desk to keep you health and productive. oh wow. you look incredible!

it's called the fcv, fuel-cell vehicle made by toyota. it not only looks futuristic but get this it will run on fuel cells that when you plug them in it will create enough juice to power your house for a week at a time. no price tag or delivery date yet, but soon it will be time to make room in the garage. >> we talk a lot about the big companies here at ces but it's all about start yutz especially if you're in a red hot area. this is stanford professor turned ceo. monica, thanks for joining us. tell us about your company. >> our company is called movie social started by a group of students, like myself, and we want to change sharing on the mobile devices. >> the trend is i'll put everything on my phone, i'll share it with my friends and you say that can be done better. >> what we have to do is create a product called omelette. omelette is the future of messaging. it is no longer just about

communicating and coordinating. that's what you get on messengers, but instead it is really all about group sharing directly on the phone. so, for example, you're at an event and have a group of people here, dynamically join people in a group and do things together and the data are shared immediately on the phone, so, for example, we take pictures and the pictures go straight into the social gallery of your phone. it is on your phone. you own that data. it doesn't belong to some external third party. nothing like facebook where you're sending it out to the entire world. you're saying maybe we can get social in an intimate more way perhaps. >> the data is yours and you can share with any gripe. you don't have to worry about what group they belong to because all of these people are accessible through your phone, your friends, your colleagues and even people straight in this room because we have this concept of social hot spot. >> right. >> and people just join and you're in the group instantaneously. this is what mobile is supposed to be. >> seems like it's where social is all on the mobile as well.

>> absolutely. >> so where does this go? i imagine you've got some great students on board. got some employees now. where do you take it from here. >> we wanted to have it on every single phone out there because we wanted to bring a common messenger on all the phones because you don't really have to wonder is like which of my friends are on which network and this is a platform where you can build all the social apps, so, for example, today, we're really excited that the aces chairman just announced that omelette is going to be integrated into their new line, and it's the native social platforms that will power up all the app ozzin the phone. >> can we get it on other phones? >> it's available on the app store. >> movie social. the program is still in incubation so we'll be launching soon so please come back and stay tuned. >> monica lam, thanks so much

for joining us. >> perhaps the most talked about consumer electronics product these days is the smart watch. it seems just about every company has one, and we hear rumors that many more are still to come. the wrist revolution was in full swing at ces with watches connecting to your smart phones, trafficking your health data and making it easy to communicate with your friend. now there are a lot of devices at ces that are cool. every once in a while we find one that may get healthier. this is the stir desk, the s-t-i-r. tell me how this desk will make me a healthier person. >> this is a desk about feeling better and getting more done during the day it. moves from sitting to standing. you can simply double tap on the screen, and it moves to the next position. the desk is also sensing your presence. so it can respond and adapt to you. what that looks like is that the desk can actually give you these gentle invitations to move

during the day, and that comes in the form of these one-inch rights and falling of the desk. >> you can make it go down and up as well. >> sure, so when you want to move to the next position, you simply tap on the screen and off you go. so it really encourages you moving around more during the day and fitting seamlessly into your day. >> which we've heard a lot about, the benefits of getting up and moving around. when can ge get our hands on one of these and how much will it cost in. >> we're taking orders on our website. the first units ship next month and they are 38.90. >> thanks. >> stirworks.com. >> don't go away. after the break we've got our best in show segment from the consumer electronics show.
